In case anyone is curious I loaded Half Life 2 into RC2. I have a Soyo
motherboard with AMD Semipron 2500 + with 1 gig of ram and an ATI All in
Wonder 9600 AGP edition with a 19 inch wide screen monitor. The game plays
perfect with native resolution on my monitor. If this game plays this well
on RC2 other games of the same type should run fine. Seems to run better in
RC2 than Windows XP. No hard numbers though for frame rates.
 
My experience is the same. HL2 seems to run as good or better in Vista than
in XP. My only issue is that, under XP I had to disable DirectX sound
acceleration to minimize sound looping crashes. This is not possible under
Vista. So, I ditched my Audigy card (which had other problems under RC1)
and went to onboard sound (Soundmax). So far, I've only had 2 crashes (with
RC1), which to me is pretty good. No crashes yet with RC2.

I've got an Asus K8V with AMD 3400, 1 gb ram, Geforce 5950 256 MB.
